BRONZE MEDALS OF THE POPES OF ROME.

This collection is the most extensive ever offered in this country, far
exceeding the Proskey Collection, sold in 1876, then the largest. All are
in the finest possible condition, except where otherwise noted. All have
been struck 'from dies, except those described as “Cast”; in the latter
case, they cannot be expected to rank as fine in condition. No duplicates,
sizes as usual following the description. For most accurate list of the
Popes see “ Coin Collector's Journal" 1880. page 133. Date of election in
brackets; when not on the medal.

iV 304 Series bearing draped busts to right (six to left), and on re-
verse the historical facts relating to each; from the 3rd to
142nd Pope; nearly all were “Saints” (i. e., in the esti-
mation of the church), but if the almost general type of
Roman nose, is correctly portrayed on these, I doubt if
their sanctity extended beyond their personal desires.
